    Slump may be on the way

    I'm sure everybody here has had slumps. I know I have. Went out today not expecting to get much 'cause the waves were showing puny on the computer. Out came this charm bracelet early in the hunt. Right over the embankment in the quasi wet. I thought it was junk at first but it wasn't. 17.8...

    Haven't had much to brag about lately

    I was detecting the wet sand at my favorite beach. It is my favorite beach only because it is the closest. There weren't many targets to be found but enough to hold my interest. I was finding a few sinkers here and there which is always a good sign. Out came this ring. I thought it was...

    Thought I had a winner

    Ring count is the same as it's always been for the past thirty years..but most of the rings I find nowadays are junk ....like this one. Found on the beach in the wet, surrounded by a lot of sinkers. Harvdog

    I need to thank Therover

    I hit the beaches today and only came up with a few pieces of junk jewelry. On the way home I decided to hit a playground mainly because of Therover's recent comment on the Mid-tones topic. He said something to the effect that he has had success in playgrounds. No real detecting skills...

    Mid-tone Targets

    Hello All, With the price of gold what it is now, I think it may pay to start digging more mid-tone targets. I'm as guilty as the next guy for passing up solid pull tab signals. I dig them every once in a while on a whim but mostly I pass them up. This leads to a question I have for all you...

    I.D. varies between Salt and Normal Modes

    Hello All, I'm mostly a beach hunter but decided to do a little land hunting with my CZ6A for a change of pace. The beaches have been pretty dead around here lately. I was testing some gold items to bring my brain up to speed with the various I.D.'s. I did confirm that normal mode will hit...

    CZ's compared to Pulse Machines for the beach

    I've been using my CZ6A on the beach in all metal mode and it works well for me. The pinpointing is good and the coverage with the 10" coil is adequate. I get about another inch of depth over my Tesoro Sand Shark with the 8" coil and my take home seems to be slightly greater with the CZ6A. The...

    Pinpoint doesn't sound off on the old CZ6A anymore

    Hello All Pinpoint button suddenly stop working. The button seems to be "clicking" in crisply and there are no other signs of damage. I could probably learn to live without the pinpoint sound as I can still ground balance using the bobbing method. And "X"ing over a target to pinpoint is...

    Crazy thing happened at the beach yesterday

    Been detecting quite a few years now and never had anything like this happen. I was detecting on a Dog beach where dogs are allowed to run free. I like dogs and occassionally take my dog there to run and swim. I was hunting the wet sand when behind me came running three dogs at full speed...

    Soccer Field Question

    Somebody brought up in a post a few weeks ago that soccer fields and sports fields were good places to hunt for gold. I'd like to concentrate on soccer fields for this discussion since there are a lot of them around here. I haven't hunted soccer fields too much and have a lot more time hunting...

    Where do you find gold?

    If we knew the answer to that question consistently we would certainly not be posting on this forum. I found a little gold today and am celebrating with a few Budweiser's. Thus the following inebriated post. Please forgive me. Haven't been out much lately. I'm getting' to old to swing that...

    Recoveries

    I was at the beach today. Didn't find much. It was late in the day when a kid about fourteen years old approached me. He said he lost his bicycle lock key and asked me if I would help him look for it. You've probably all been there before. I figured the chances were pretty slim only because...

    Got kicked out of my Park

    Hello All, I was detecting the park up the street the other day which I have detected for that last twenty years. There is not much left in that park except "iffy" targets. I have never had a problem with park personnel. I have always just waved and said hello without any issues. The other...

    Battery Life with CZ6A

    Hello All, Just a quick question about battery life with the 6A. I'm using rechargeable 9V batteries and they seem to go for only about 6 hours? Does that seem about right? I used to hunt with the Sand Shark and the battery life was much longer so I have to be careful when I'm out there with...

    How long can you hunt without burning out?

    Hello all, I was on the beach yesterday for about four hours and that was all I could take. I was seeing double and started tripping over myself. I read in one of Clives books that he hunts for twelve hour stretches sometimes. Didn't get much on the beach yesterday just two junkers. Today I...

    Strap Support for CZ6A

    Hello all, The older CZs can get a little heavy on your arm if you use them without some kind of support strap. I made this little strap connector out of a piece of .050" thick stainless steel sheet metal. The connector slides up under the batter compartment tie down screws to keep it in...

    Question about dealing with black sand with a CZ

    I love the CZ6A but like with any VLF detector, it struggles in the black sand. Even PI's do. I've found that I can do one of two things. Either lower the sensitivity down to around 2 or raise the coil quite high above the sand. My question is which one of those two options is be best in...

    Are you superstitious?

    Had the CZ6A out at the park a few days ago and the first thing I found was a good luck charm. Not bad. Within five minutes I dug a signal that had two rings in it. One large mans silver ring and a gold plated junker. Within the next five minutes I dug a 1961 silver dime out of that park...
